I Like You, written by Sandol Stoddard Warburg and illustrated by Jacqueline Chwast, is a perfectly delightful treatise on friendship and the varied and wonderful ways our friendships are made up. Originally published in 1965, I feel its simplistic yet whimsical “story” and accompanying illustrations is just as relevant today. If you have friends who do nothing but make your life more delightful, this is the perfect wee book to send to them.

I LOVE this description:

"Here is the book that Romeo would have given Juliet, Charlie Brown would have given Snoopy, and you can give to some very special friend. This special book expresses the true meaning of friendship in a long list of ways with charming accompanying illustrations."

It really is a FUN book!

PERFECT for Valentine's Day OR any day you want to tell someone...

I LIKE YOU BECAUSE...
"I Like You" is a high-spirited book for friends. It is literally for anyone who truly understands their best friend. I bought this book a few years ago. It is one of my coffee table books and whenever someone visits who genuinely understands me and vice versa, I have them read it.
This is delightful and precious. Share it with the people you like best.
A fun and touching story about the many reasons a person can like another. Classic illustrations.
Does there really need to be an explanation for why this book is so fantastic? No. It just is.
